Activities 2 and 4

2) There are cases where evidence of the senses can be considered unreliable. In courtrooms today, many prosecutors bring to trial the victims of an attack, or witnesses to the attacks. Their accounts can be very different based on their perceptions. A victim may say that she saw the person that attacked her very clearly, but the defense might argue that she was traumatized and could not possibly be a reliable witness to her own crime. Her senses would not count as empirical evidence at all.

4) When I work on arguments, I always try to have accurate data that corresponds to key points in my arguments. I try to check my author's credibility's before I decided to use them as a source, but sometimes that isn't always the case.
